The dealer had fitted a new battery. I seem to recall another car some years back when this happened after anew battery...any thoughts?
Also, the spoiler doesn’t seem to deploy at 60mph. It operates from the switch.
As they came from the factory there was no audible sound, the lights just flashed once or three times. If the lights flash when you say then the alarm siren is probably dead. You can replace it with a siren that beeps, once or three times at the same time the lights flash.
The siren is under the cowl in front of the windshield, disconnecting it would confirm my diagnosis.
One flash for opening and three for locking.
You can forget the new battery causing the problem.
